session, at which affairs of the department
were informally discussed. No particulars

deal of gossip on the outside as
to certain changes in both policy
and men, but there is little danger of this,
as the commission does not appear to be

A Canadian Outrage.

ST. JOHN, N. B., April News has
reached here that the fishery cruiser Vigi-
liant, when sailing out of Beaver Harbor a
few days ago, sighted an American fishing
vessel within the three mile limit, and
evidently after bait. The Vigilant gave
chase and gained on the Yankee" who
refused to heave to, even when blank
shot was fired. The chase was continued,
but the American vessel soon gained the
line and was safe. This is the first gun
fired this season by a Canadian cruiser.

A Large Audience Witnesses Its
Dress Drill.

A highly appreciative audience, number
ing about five hundred, witnessed Company
AS dress drill at the armory last night.
Six weeks ago the company began active
work preparatory to the national encamp-
ment drill at Washington. The men have
slept at the armory, and have averaged nine
drills week since the 1st of March. Those
present last night who witnessed the for
mer dress drill were amazed at the great
improvement which six weeks of hard work
have wrought in the company. The pleas
ure of the audience was frequently mani
tested in prolonged applause. The ladies
and the civilians considered the various ev-
olutiOns OF the company as perfect as they
could be made. To any one acquainted
with military matters, however, it was APP
parent that the company will have to improve
fully as much again as it has, if Minneapo-
lis is to win the first prize. A popular
audience overlooks individual errors which
would prove fatal before military judges.
1t seems hard that an otherwise perfect
movement should be marred by the slow
ness of a single hand or the dullness of
single ear, but it is possible, in close COM
petition, for one slow hand to deprive
whole company Of great honor. Company A
is, on the whole, well up in the manual of
arms, but there is room for improvement in
marching. STILL when it is remembered
that the bad condition of the streets has
compelled the company to drill entirely
within doors. its work is thoroughly COM
mendable. and 1T deserves every encourage
ment at the hands of citizens generally.
Capt Amory announced last night that
sufficient subscriptions had been re-
ceived to pay transportation bills. 1t is of
the utmost importance that new uniforms
be secured before the great contest. Let
the generous public. spirited people send in
money enough to cover this expense, and
they will have no cause to be ashamed of
the city's representatives. The boys are
working like beavers they have yet five
weeks to prepare in, and the five weeks
will bring them near to perfection.
